Subject: Re:  CCL:Good Fortran Compiler for computational science on
    PC?



Lahey is widely regarded as the best Fortran compiler for Pentium 
platforms.  They also have a Fortran 90.

Few people find that actual performance on real-world codes parallels
any "standard" benchmarks, such as specfp92.  We'll all be interested
in hearing comparative benchmarks for your quantum code on Pentium and
IBM RISC.
